Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder has confirmed an intimate solo tour of Australia in March next year.

The shows will kick off in Brisbane on the 10th March at Queensland Performing Arts Centre Concert Hall and finish up in Adelaide on the 27th March at the Thebarton Theatre.

Pearl Jam came to Australia last year on their sold out stadium tour. The solo tour will give fans the chance to see a stripped back Vedder; just him and his guitar. Support for the full tour will be US-based folk-pop outfit Evil J & Saint Cecilia; consisting of Australia’s own Eliza Jane Barnes and Ceci Herbert.

Vedder has previously toured solo in the US back in 2008 and 2009. His solo work has included soundtrack contributions to the films of his friend Sean Penn on Dead Man Walking (1995), I Am Sam (2001) and Into The Wild (2007).

Tickets for all shows go on sale Friday 10th December, 9am.
